VMS/Stat version 0.02
=====================
VMS::Stat provides perl access to the HP C extensions to the mkdir()
call in the C run time library (C RTL). In particular, optional extra
arguments for the owner UIC, maximum RMS version limit, and
relative volume number may be given in calls to VMS::Stat::vmsmkdir().
Other documentaton can be found by running:
perldoc Stat.pm
prior to installation, or:
perldoc VMS::Stat
after installation.
This extension can only be expected to work on VMS.
This extension was developed and tested on Alpha VMS V7.3-1 && V7.3-2,
perl 5.005_02 && 5.8.1, and Compaq C S6.5-002.
Results with other version combinations are unknown.
INSTALLATION
To install this module type the following:
perl Makefile.PL
mmk
mmk test
mmk install
In the last three steps mms may be used in place of mmk.
Issue the command:
perl "-V:make"
at the DCL prompt to determine which utility was used to
build your perl installation.
DEPENDENCIES
This extension requires these other modules and libraries:
The DEC/Compaq/HP C run time should provide you access to a mkdir()
call that has extensions to ISO standards for arguments to pass to
this routine. Refer to HELP CC Run-time_functions mkdir as well as
other C Run-Time library documentation (e.g. AA-PUNEE-TK or later
documents).
File::Path is used during testing of this extension.
The one that shipped with your perl installation should be fine.
File::Path is not required for the working of an installed VMS::Stat.
